Beef, it's what's for dinner!

Amber and I finally found a cheeseburger!!!! After Marilyn, Amber, and I skipped all around town to get a passport document signed for Marilyn's son, Sam, we sent her on her way to the airport for Kenya and decided to check out "Sea Cliff Village." We were told that this place was similar to our favorite location, Slip-Way, where we enjoy pizza and shopping, so we caught a taxi and headed that way. Upon arrival, the first thing we noticed was the huge westernized super market and several restaurant signs. We were starved from our earlier adventures so decided to go into the cafe'. We knew we had made the right choice when we saw Samosas and Beef Burgers on the menu. The two of us enjoyed a cocktail and indulged in the cheese burger we had been longing for!

After our scrumptious meal, we walked around for a bit, tried some Aero Chocolate (chocolate with bubbles inside... pretty tasty! Very airy!) and then our Taxi driver took us on a hunt for some Simba Futbol Club Jersey's. We were a bit nervous when our driver told us "this was not a safe neighborhood no matter what color your skin is. Stay in the car, I'll be back." He then proceeded to leave us in the unlocked running car. A slight freak out occurred but he was soon back and had us down an alley for the jersey's. Festo... the cab driver, also mentioned that we should get our names on the back. We couldn't argue so he led us on another chase to find the shop for personalizing. What a day... we headed back to the hotel to do some laundry.

Last year our laundry experience consisted of washing our clothes in the tub with dish soap, this year we got smart and brought Tide Detergent. Washing was much easier but we quickly ran out of places to lay and hang things to dry. In the mean time, we order room service late in the evening and settled in to watch some good ole' African soap operas. Similar to home video, we had our fair share of laughs. Before we knew it was 11 o'clock.... the lastest we have stayed up yet! We must be settling into the time change... after two week :)

Amber and I slept in.... if you call 9 a.m. sleeping in. We weren't sure what the day would hold but we headed off to Tinga Tinga first to pick up some customized items. Then, we had the driver take us back to the slip way for more shopping and eating :) We have been told that "that's all American's like to do!" We spent the afternoon sipping cocktails by the ocean and enjoying another round of Samosas. (Moms: We are going to have to find the recipe)

It was time to head back to the Peacock to check on our Simba vs. Yanga tickets! Turns out, we are VIP A for tomorrow game. Tickets only cost us 30,000 shillings which is roughly $20. Not only do we have VIP tickets, we also have a personal escort from the hotel that is also accompanying us to the game. No worries, we should be in safe hands! Not to mention we are going to be looking stylish in our personalized Simba jersey's and white skin! No one will mess with us!

We look forward to sharing our experiences at the Simba vs Yanga Game!
Usikumwema (goodnight!)
